Very Nice! I love these old Kenmores, they had so much styling, each machine was unique. Hans gave me one from Mike Hayes' collection this summer, I still need to clean it up. I also have the Whispertone machines from the early 60s. The Kenmores of this era are hard to beat, the attachments did...

Hans! I will gladly help you do some cleanup. I would also help take some stuff home as well (hopefully). I can help get pictures of them too. Stay in touch,   -Tyler [this post was last edited: 10/4/2017-10:45]

Want it! Please send me an email! [email protected]  Thank you! 

Tom I would love to try and get the Model 80 Kenmore with the L shaped nozzle, is that one available? Also, what would be a reasonable offer on the Super Chief or Zephyr?      -Tyler

RIP Mike, though, I did not know you. You brought joy to many and have touched many in the vacuum world.  I hope he rests in peace. I have two machines from his collection, courtesy of Hans, that I will cherish.   Rest In peace Michael and all the best to his family and friends.  ...

Huge thank you To Father Bruce for doing this. I had a wonderful time. It was nice seeing Tom G.and Michael B. as well, we all chatted about vacuums and got to see Father Bruce's beautiful Model XII, that was a real treat. I'm glad these have found forever homes. I learned alot and had a great...

Grease There are grease ports on the machine. No grease gun, that I know of. Vaseline works great. Tom G. told me that trick. I have used it in all my Air-Way uprights, with much success.    Enjoy your Green Goddess. -Tyler

Shakeout Bag Hi Kenny, that bag isn't original (That I'm aware of). Air-Way prided themselves on having the first disposable paper bag. 50 years ahead of it's time. 14 layers of cellulose. Nearly HEPA ratings in the 1920s. That machine is not an easy one to find. I can help you find some modern...

Trying To see if I can get the days off. I want to go, but, it's a 16 hour drive from here in NC. The room is also quite expensive, I don't have a disposable income, sadly lol. So, I would need to room with someone or would need to figure something out. I don't want to miss out on another...

My dog Sheba Isn't fond of vacuums, but, you can vacuum her. She likes the quiet machines better. Like my Air-Way or one of my 50s early 60s Kenmores. They are much quieter than the powermates that came later on. Luxs are very quiet machines as well. The Model G is one of the quietest...

Kenmore Had some beauties in the 50s and 60s. My personal favorites for beauty are the 1961 Lady Kenmore Whispertone and the 1962 Kenmore Whispertone 90.

Congrats! Glad you finally found your dream machine. I will have to bring my Lady Kenmore and the Whispertone 90 that way we can have all 3 girls together :-) P.S. HUGE Thank You to Ken Wagman for the Lady Kenmore and Tom Gasko for the Whispertone 90. These are my two most prized machines.

Ken Thoughts and prayers for you and your family. Call me if you need someone to talk to. May he rest in peace. Much love and all the best, -Tyler

Hans I hope you get it! A very unusual and beautiful machine. I will take mine to your house when I visit with you. Good luck! -Tyler

Another one?? Does it so happen to look like this? Hans Craig (Kenkart) is looking for one.

Hans I would love to come and help find the bags. It would be an honor to help you out, and see your collection! Also, I have been wanting to meet you. I am not sure of the bag number, off the top of my head. They are very small and funky.

Kenny.. As soon as I dig mine out, I will try and see if I have bags (NOS)? and see if there are any adapters inside the machine. Sears has been very good for having funky adapters and bags... tisk tisk. -Tyler

Kenny I might have some bags for said machine. Send me an email or message me on here or on Facebook. They are currently in storage right now, along with the machine. -Tyler

The hose Isn't correct, by this time all Sears was using vinyl hoses. So I'm sure this Whirlpool was using the same. These machines used the same L-shaped power nozzle that their Kenmore cousins used. We don't get to see many of the Whirlpool vacuum products of that time period, they must have...
